Summary
Regulus Black has been running for as long as he can remember—ever since he and his brother fled their oppressive family home at a young age, determined to make it on their own.
But the years have worn him down, and the weight of survival has turned his life into a blur of exhausting jobs, empty nights, and endless isolation. Now, Regulus drifts through life as a ghost, quietly working as a university library assistant and sneaking into Economics lectures, hoping that knowledge will offer him a way out of the past that still haunts him.
But when a certain professor hires him, Regulus meets his son James, his complete opposite, who craves to show him the beauty of connection.

Or:
A pretty angsty, but still fluffy story that simultaneously follows the past of Sirius and Reg running away and doing anything to survive, and the present, where Regulus is pretty much a cold son of a bitch and James is absolutely whipped and does the most heart-warming shit for him. Also ft. Fleamont being a paternal figure to Reg, which I adore :)

Summary
Regulus Black infuriates James like nobody else. He is stuck up, conceited, arrogant, and an all-around asshole. Stab your finger into a thesaurus near the word prick, and you’ll come up with an accurate description of his character every single time.
But just this once, James will keep his opinion to himself. Anything to ensure Remus and Sirius’ wedding goes off without a hitch. He will be the bigger man. He won’t let Regulus rile him up, no matter how much he tries to get under his skin. No matter how much he flaunts those aristocratic cheekbones of his. No matter how gorgeous he looks with his guard down. No. Just. No.
As the best man, James is supposed to solve problems, not invent new ones. And lusting after his best friend’s brother? That’s a problem, alright. Unfortunately, his restraint only lasts until Regulus opens his mouth.
Turns out, one sentence is all it takes to blow the line between desire and hate to dust. “On. Your. Knees.”Series

Summary
There are two types of people in a small town. The ones who are suffocating, counting down every day until they can leave, and the ones who stay.
Sirius leaves. Regulus doesn't.
When Sirius returns six years later, it's to find that nothing is quite as he expected.
Sometimes you break the cycle, and sometimes, it breaks you.
